Should I be worried that I have been to a significant majority of the pubs mentioned in this thread?
Does this mean I have impeccable taste when choosing hostelries?
Or does it perhaps suggest I spend far too much time and money in the pub?

The Ship in Wandsworth re-opened a week ago after being shut for a major refurb inside and out. Done a great job. The food is very good here but since the refurb the burger has got a lot better. One of the best in London now for sure (bar boulud is the best).
Glad someone else thinks so too;

I have not managed to find a thread dedicated to the multitude of great drinking establishments in London. So I am going to create one. Will limit this to 3 of my favourite, favourites otherwise my list will be too long. I am biased towards the city as I work in the area:
- Ye Olde Cheshire Cheese (Fleet Street)
- Old Bank of England (Fleet Street)
- The Hoop and Grapes (Aldgate)

My favourites:
The Anchor Bankside nice terrace by the river, a good stop off if you're visiting the South Bank (beats the trews off the Founders' Arms IMO)
The Cittie of Yorke on High Holborn near Chancery Lane, surprised nobody's mentioned it
The Duke of Wellington on Crawford St W1 is rather more upmarket but very pleasant

^ Glad to hear the place is still going -- I spent far too much time in there in the mid-90s shooting pool.

One thing worth bearing in mind is whether you just want to drink or get a good meal as well. There are a lot of boozers around town which are great for a drink but I wouldn't eat there. Likewise, there are a number of pubs which are best known for their food and are really restaurants in a pub-like setting.
